Abstract excerpt
The diagnosis of an ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is often made by dermatologists. Some of the more than 50 distinct ectodermal dysplasias, however, are still largely unknown and their pathogenesis is poorly understood. Since we recently discovered that variants of the Interferon Regulatory Factor 6 (IRF6) gene IRF6 may cause ED, we have further investigated the link between this gene and maldevelopment of tissues...
